buy'n crits/items/gold for rl money

just wondering if anyone else really hates it that ppl can get good stuff on this game withouth really doing anything on the game for it?
i personally think it's really crappy if you have to get your stuff that way. can't you ppl just train and work for your stuff?
i think this is really unfair to the ppl that couldn't/can't afford to pay for stuff on this game with real money.

Funny thing is, JLH can just create crits, make items etc and sell them, doesnt even have to do anything for it

the diff is you don't compete with others on your ps2 and if you game online with a game you buy in a store you can't buy strength then it comes down to skill. like quake or unreal or counter-strike. you only get better cuz you train. on nm you can get better by doing nothing

And if you've been playing for over 2 years (like me) then your fed up of training, so it's extremely hard to keep up with people.

You also have a computer which can hold +10 character's most people don't, i do too, but training requires effort, why put effort in to something when you can scrape out a few £'s and buy something with next to no effort. As Al said, what skill? Click. yeah...

Agreed.
Everything that I have/own, I've gotten it myself.. as far as items. Training.. I've had help on (usually because they offered).. but, I did the majority of the work.
I'd never pay [i]real[/r] money for crits, items.. etc for this game or any other RPG. It may be unfair to spend your real money on certain things, but, that'd be similar to buying them with your in game money/gold.. but, you'd be able to buy actual things with it.

Trading items/crits from game to game and buying them for real money just seems like taking the easy way out..
The point of the game is to play it and master it, not buy your way through
But hey, whatever rocks your boat..if you enjoy playing the game that way then more power to you.

I don't agree with that.IMO the point of playing a game is to have fun.I could have loads more fun with the stuff I can buy.

Yea yea, I know, I'm probably being subjective now.
But look at it this way... if you've got a job, and you get let's say 10$/hour. Work 8 hours a day, that's 80$/day. Work for a week and you've got yourself 800$ and could buy stuff that would take about 2 years of frequently playing to get...
